Request for review/comments - new option for uname(1)
The output of ``uname -a'' appears in hundreds of e-mails and PRs yet
the output format is not ideal for this (especially e-mail in
80-column mail readers) as it is a single line.
Attached is a patch for an enhancement I've made that adds a new
option ``-A'' (rather than change ``-a'') that splits it up into 3
lines thus making it better for including verbatim in e-mails and PRs:
# uname -A
FreeBSD parish 4.1-STABLE FreeBSD 4.1-STABLE #0:
Tue Aug 8 00:51:02 BST 2000
mark@parish:/usr/src/sys/compile/PARISH i386
The only thing I couldn't work out is why sysctl() adds 5 spaces after
the date sub-string, so I've haven't stripped them out (hence the
indented third line).
Is there any reason why this is unacceptable and could not be committed?
BTW, please Cc: me.
Thanks for your time.

Feedback: Minor problems u/g 3.4-STABLE -> 4.0
Firstly, a big thank-you to all the developers for their work on 4.x. I've just u/g 3.4-STABLE -> 4.0, following the instructions in /usr/source/UPDATING using sources cvsup'd 10:00GMT 4th March, and although it went quite smoothly came across a few minor problems which I'm posting here in case anyone is interested. 1. This message appeared 166 times during ``make buildworld'': /usr/libexec/ld-elf.so.1: Shared object "libc.so.4" not found It also caused config(8) on the new kernel to fail, but ldconfig -R /usr/obj/usr/src/lib/libc cured that. 2. UPDATING includes the following in the instructions to build the new kernel: cd src/usr.bin/genassym make depend all install clean cd ../../usr.sbin/config make depend all install clean however doing a ``make clean'' at this point then causes ``make installworld'' fail in those directories. 3. This probably won't affect most people but I'm including it so it's in the mail archives. I have a Diamond Fireport 40 SCSI card (NCR/Symbios 53c875j chip) and my 2nd (UW SCSI) disk is a single slice (although *not* dangerously dedicated) mounted as /usr. As this disk is not a boot device I had not enabled boot probing for it in the SCSI BIOS but under 2.2.x and 3.x it was still found by the old ncr driver. The new sym driver, however, failed to find the disk and caused a "device not configured" error from mount(8) which resulted in the boot-up dropping to single-user. It took me a while to find the cause (I thought it was a problem, or my mistake, when making the new device nodes for the disks). -- Microsoft: Where do you want to go today?

Yes :)
sio2: at port 0x3e8-0x3ef irq 5 on isa0
sio2: type 16550A
Why did it work before though, under 3.x, without this line in sio.c?

Modem no longer found after u/g to 4.0-current - help
I've just done a relatively painless upgrade from 3.4-STABLE to 4.0, kudos to all he developers. However, one thing that doesn't work is causing me great problems. My ISA PnP modem is found as "unknown0", instead of sio2 no matter what I do: unknown0: at port 0x3e8-0x3ef irq 5 on isa0 The full dmseg output is at the end of this post. I've tried changing the PnP-OS seting in the BIOS, but it's no different. I thought I'd found the solution in LINT: # PnP `flags' (set via userconfig using pnp x flags y) # 0x1 disable probing of this device. Used to # prevent your modem from being attached # as a PnP modem. # which appears to be what is needed but ``boot -c'' and ``pnp 1 flags 0x1'' at the ``config>'' prompt gives: Invalid command or syntax. type '?' for help. Does anyone know the solution to this? This modem has worked flawlessly on this PC from 2.2.8 to 3.4-STABLE and it would be a shame to have to replace it now. TIA BTW, please Cc: me diractly as I'm not subscribed to any lists under this temporary Internet account, thanks. dmesg output: Copyright (c) 1992-2000 The FreeBSD Project.
